Former President Donald Trump has announced his endorsement of Rep. Lee Zeldin in the New York gubernatorial race, telling voters that the Long Island Republican can resolve the state’s crime woes.
“I have watched and known Congressman Lee Zeldin for many years. He is a great and brilliant lawyer who was a ‘must see’ for others in Congress when they had a complex legal problem that was holding up legislation,” Trump wrote on his Truth Social account on Oct. 16.
